IMPROVED TAXIWAY EXIT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM

A prototype enhanced visual taxiway identification system, consisting of a segment of green lights imbedded within the conventional runway centerline lighting system, was developed and tested at the Federal Aviation Administration Technical Center. Results of the combined developmental/evaluational effort indicated that the system may be expected to provide enhanced and effective identification of taxiway exit locations at minimum cost.
